BACKGROUND: The Kittitas County Sheriff s Office needs to replace the current

marine patrol work, mainly on the Columbia River and Upper County lakes, and is at or
past its useful life for safe marine patrol operation.
In the preliminary 2016 budget discussions, KCSO and the BOCC agreed to earmark
$60,000 in the Law and Justice Fund for the future purchase of a boat. Additionally, there
is at least $45,000 available in the Vehicle Registration Fund (VRF) available for the
purchase of a boat. Finally, the estimated trade-in value of Marine 1 and its trailer is
$15,000-$20,000. The total cost of a new boat will be over $100,000, necessitating the
formal bid process.
INTERACTION: The bid proposal was reviewed and approved by the Kittitas County
Prosecutor's Office.
